The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

Another round of the CR/Plotting Meme - you know what do do!

As always, the meme's open for making arrangements with and between not only current but potential characters in StE; there will be a header under which to comment with potential characters - when doing so, please label with characters' reincarnated names (if decided!) and pre-incarnated names and canons in the comments' subject lines.

For characters of either status, toss up a comment and any information you see please; go on ahead and use this form if you'd like a place to start or take it however you feel -

<b>Character:</b> <b>Pre-Incarnation:</b> [Feel free to write them up a blurb here - especially encouraged if they're a character you're considering rather than one established in-game! Alternatively omit.] <b>Pre-Network CR Opportunities:</b> (Family, colleagues, or mentors/students you're open to player control of? Friends and enemies from here-or-there you'd like them entering things with? Etc.) <b>Open/Wanted CR:</b> (Have you any certain types of CR/dynamics you hope to bring into development?) <b>Other Info:</b> (Anything a person ought to know - any plans for them or things you've wanted to write them doing? Where characters may encounter each other? What they like, what they've been up to, what they do and do not get along with?) <b>Anything Else?:</b> (Anything else you'd like to say?)

Character: Henry Mills/Cassidy
Pre-Incarnation:
Uh quick brief summary, this kid is from a show about fairy tales and goes on all kinds of whacky adventures. And by whacky I mean heart crushing.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities:
-Possibly cops that worked on his parents murder case in Boston
-babysitters
-kids from school
-Possibly knowing about his parents murder via internet


Open/Wanted CR:
Parental figures. Henry's really not keen on his foster parents because of often getting thrown back into the system, so someone from the network willing to parent him would be fun.

Also friends. Lots of friends. This kid needs to open up a bit and he's started to do that.

Other than that? At some point I want it to be made clear that Henry's parents are in fact dead. Only one person really knows about it and that's it.

Other Info:
Well, when people can leave Locke and not lose their memories, Henry might go pester some of the adults to take him to Boston. He'll say it's important or come up with some excuse so he can see his parents graves.

He can probably be found at school during the week, or around town during the weekend. He don't need no guardians to bring him places. Rebel lyfe.

Henry usually now is just trying to figure out what he can do to help beat the aliens. He's got that power and he totally wants to be helpful in some way.

Henry usually likes being left alone but that's boring so go bug him. A lot. He usually ends up reading and because of a recent echo he got his storybook back so he'll be reading that for awhile.


Anything Else?: contact me on christhehost at plurk for anything!

[gogoghostpowers]

you said i am now obligated to have CR with you

well, my friend

let's tango

[theboywiththebook]

I think I may swoon.

Just let me get that colorful dress on.

But, lessee....Henry defs would take a shining to Danny knowing he's basically a teen super hero. I mean, come on that's pretty fucking awesome.

edit: woop sorry but what are your thoughts

[gogoghostpowers]

I think Henry should absolutely stroke his ego, Danny is starting to finally feel more confident and comfortable with his situation despite its weirdness, and any encouragement is fantastic!!!

he still hates the spandex though. and he'll judge henry if he likes it. (or dump all his extra suits on him. they're probably too big for him, but hey, it'll give him something to grow into.)

[theboywiththebook]

Nah the costume is kind of cool in it's own way. That's what Henry would think anyways. But, if Danny does make it known to Henry that he hates his outfit the kid could always, you know, believe Danny's outfit into something better?

There ya go, Danny. Someone who'll make you a cooler costume.

or worse. He's ten.

[gogoghostpowers]

AHAHAHA OH JESUS PLEASE

PLEASE DO THIS

PLEASE MAKE IT WORSE I NEED THIS

(although it'd only be temporary. by the next day his weird ghost biology would turn it back to normal.)

[theboywiththebook]

It'll have a big cape, with the underwear on the outside. God what other hideousness does this outfit need?

(that's all cool. One day of laughs is more priceless than all the days worth of an awesome outfit)

[lightsoflife]

Did you say parenting? Naomi lost one of her friends/her daughter's birth father over drugs so she could sympathize somewhat.

[theboywiththebook]

I'm not sure it's Irony but that's pretty much how his parents got offed because they were putting people away who sold drugs 8D

[lightsoflife]

That may or may not be irony, because I may or may not have read your app.

What is irony is that her friend actually did sell drugs. Oops.

[theboywiththebook]

Wow.

Next you're going to tell me her friend was from Boston.

[lightsoflife]

Unfortunately (fortunately?), no. Somewhere in Maine.

For real, though, the incident was a few years ago for her but Henry isn't that much older than her daughter is now.

[theboywiththebook]

I think I would've laughed it had happened in Boston.

But, yeah they can get to know each other. Henry will be a little jerk for awhile because what is this letting people close stuff? That just makes him feel bad when he gets thrown into foster care again. B<

So yeah, tots up for all this.

[lightsoflife]

Excellent. These two need to meet then - does Henry let on who he is on the network? If so, I could have Naomi recognize him.

[theboywiththebook]

He's gone on video a few times and he said his name was Henry (Clearly he knows all the rules of internet safety)

but he hasn't really mentioned much about family life. If that's what you mean.

[lightsoflife]

Nah, more like full name stuff. That's cool, then; I can be on the lookout for him, then, unless he takes an interest in research or echo experiments.

[flamberge]

Parental figures, you say~? And from Boston? Clearly we must cr because this is a dad type who lost his wife and son (weee evil police force murder) and he's originally from Boston, too.

[theboywiththebook]

Seems like everyone wants to dad Henry. /Hand chin at all this beauty and loveliness.

And wow, that does suck for poor Karl. Perhaps, Karl might've heard of The Cassidy couple getting murdered because they kept putting drug dealers away? (His mom was a cop and his dad was a lawyer. Probs should've mentioned that.)

[flamberge]

Accept all the dads, Henry, ACCEPT THEM.

Aww Henry's life sucks just as much. Hmmm it that was a big news thing then yeah he definitely could have heard of it. He keeps pretty up to date with things that go on back in Boston. When did the murders take place?

[theboywiththebook]

YUP.

It would've been pretty big news back in Boston. The only thing that wouldn't be mentioned on official news reports would be Henry's name. Other than that, they would've mentioned that they had a kid that was alive. Unofficial interwebs stuff probs would've named him. BUT TO GET TO THE ACTUAL QUESTION CAUSE WOOPS..

The murders took place three years ago when Henry was Seven.

[flamberge]

Yeah, Karl could have feasibly heard of it. He wouldn't have looked too much into the kid's name, but would likely know the other details.

Yup, definitely not too long ago that Karl wouldn't know. If someone brought it up, the name would probably click after like a quick google search. All we need is for them to actually chat so Karl gets Henry's name.

[theboywiththebook]

Than this will definitely happen.

[flamberge]

Any ideas how or do we just go with the flow and see what happens?

[theboywiththebook]

Not currently but I'm sure something we'll come up. I could always make some kind of entry hmmm..
